After last Saturday’s successful Bedroom Tax protest it was agreed to hold meetings across Edinburgh with the aim of establishing local groups to fight back against the Bedroom Tax. The meeting details are as follows;
EDINBURGH WEST: Tuesday 9 April at 7.00pm Gorgie Dalry Church, 190 Gorgie Road.EH11 2NX.

A campaign has been launched by tenants in north-west Glasgow to resist the rent hikes currently being proposed by Queens Cross Housing Association (QXHA). The Housing Association are planning a rent increase of nearly 5% for the second year running, a rise well over inflation during a time when many are already struggling to make ends meet.

Last week we went along to attend and support a local anti-cuts meeting organised by Edinburgh East Save Our Services. There was a good turnout of around 30-40 people, angry about the cuts already being implemented and the many more that are planned.
